And hinting was the only reason I made the remark about standing still; I understood quite well why Eimi wouldn't care for being shut down ... although I wondered if her hard-drive might in fact be immune to what Klaatu did to electrical power everywhere. I'm assuming this is the original, not the remake -- it occurred to me that back then, he wouldn't have had any reason to set his gadget to neutralize something like a laptop, since no one on Earth had them so far as Klaatu knew. A Handwavium-treated laptop might be extra resistant, too. Nonetheless, better safe than sorry.
